A couple of days ago D tried on one of K's pink flowery dresses. He loved it apparently, since getting him out of it was quite a challenge. So what better program than to attend the Scottish Festival this Saturday? We enjoyed the bands, the bag pipers, sheep herding dogs (I mean sheep-herding dogs herding sheep!) and all the guys sporting their skirts, ahh, ahh, I mean, kilts... Mr. D thought they all looked just fine!
Sunday was Zoo day. We found out that plasmacars are not allowed in zoo premises. D was quite cooperative in handing it over for safe storage at guest services. We enjoyed monkeys, story time and live animal show the best today. We all roared with baby tiger as he scared the animals in the jungle. Later on, K volunteered to be a stage helper - great progress! The live animal show featured a four picture-card riddle "Mad - A - Gas - Car". K was "Mad". The solution led us to the star of the show: a hissing Madagascar cockroach! (Don't we have enough cockroaches in TX?!) The next animal was an even bigger hit with the kids, a two-foot long alligator and everyone got to touch it. A very forgiving alligator, I must say.
If up in time from the afternoon naps, we'll be off to "inventions and innovations" at BB MFAH. If not, just swinging in the park will cap the day.
